Abstract:

   This document defines a data structure that can be appended to
   selected ICMP messages.  The ICMP extension defined herein can be
   used to gain visibility into environmental information on the
   internet by providing per-hop (i.e., per topological network node)
   power metrics and other present or future metrics around
   environmental information.  This will contribute to achieving an
   objective mentioned in the report of the IAB E-Impact workshop.

   The techniques presented are useful not only in a transactional
   setting (e.g., a user-issued traceroute or a ping request), but also
   in a scheduled automated setting where they may be run periodically
   in a mesh across an administrative domain to map out environmental
   information.
